This is the first year that I have planted calla lilies in my Lake Tahoe garden, so I am hoping they will survive the coming winter and bloom next summer. I could not resist the gorgeous yellow color and green veins!
This very long 17" (~400mm) Dallmeyer Dallon came in a L39 mount, but cannot attain infinity focus, and it did not come with any focusing mechanism. Very strange beast. Big and difficult to use, at least it came with a good hood.
A part of a large construction machine on a local construction site. I couldn't resist the intense colours and the great shadows.

Minutes out of the compact and busy tourist town of New Hope PA, the excursion train pulled by NH&I 2-8-0 #40, finds peace and beauty in the yellow leaves of autumn.
I am not sure what type of flowers these are but I loved how the yellow of the flower contrasted with the darkness of the shadows.

The streets of Dwarka, New Delhi are now bright shinning with yellow flowers of Sona Chura trees lined across the streets. The bright yellow colors stay only for few day before giving way to green leaves and truly a treat for the eyes.

A yellow iris, in our yard. They come back from underground every year, or most of them do. Beautiful complex flowers.

Thanks for looking! Isn't God a great artist?
Project 52, week 14
This weeks prompt was "Yellow"
This was again an experiment that I started with full confidence that I could do it, but I soon noticed that this wasn't as easy as I thought it would be :-)
I've seen wonderful images of paper and I wanted to try to do that too. I thought how hard can that be, I just roll the papers and I get beautiful curls and that's it.
Well, papers don't make pretty curls or at least mine didn't, so finally i just made a roll of the papers and fastened them with a paperclip and here's the result of that :)
And pretty please, hit L.

Beautiful yellow Calendula shot at HIHT in jolly grant.
Calendula (Ca-lén-du-la, pot marigold) is a genus of about 12-20 species of annual or perennial herbaceous plants in the daisy family Asteraceae, native to the area from Macaronesia east through the Mediterranean region to Iran. Calendula should not be confused with other plants that are also known as marigolds, such as plants of the genus Tagetes, corn marigolds or marsh marigolds.
The name Calendula stems from the Latin kalendae, meaning first day of the month, presumably because pot marigolds are in bloom at the start of most months of the year. The common name marigold probably refers to the Virgin Mary, or its old Saxon name 'ymbglidegold', which means 'it turns with the sun'. Marigolds typically bloom quickly (in under two months) in bright yellows, reds, and oranges throughout the summer and well into the fall.
Marigolds are considered by many gardening experts as one of the most versatile flowers to grow in a garden, especially since it is easy to grow. Seeds sown in the spring, in most soils, will germinate freely in sunny or half-sunny locations. They do best, however, if planted in sunny locations with rich, well-drained soil. The leaves are spirally arranged, 5-18 cm long, simple, and slightly hairy. The flower heads range from pastel yellow to deep orange, and are 3-7 cm across, with both ray florets and disc florets. They have a spicy aroma and are produced from spring to autumn in temperate climates. It is recommended to deadhead (removal of dying flower heads) the plants regularly to maintain even blossom production.
